Hillary On LGBT Youth

Hillary answered a question on her online forum about GLBT youth and the high rates of depression and suicide. (At about 3:40).

She says there need to be more services, particularly efforts to educate teachers and peers. She also suggests mentoring.

"We've got to send a clear message that we value you as a total person," she said. "We want you to feel accepted and respected in your community. You will certainly have a president who feels that way."
